I wound up with two Abu 6500s series reels and four yellow tournament choice spinning rods. Not the best equipment in the world but if anybody getting started on a budget maybe you can use them. Pm me if you or somebody you know needs them. Pick up in Lewisville.

Spazm09 when you get these go down to home depot and buy a 99cent piece of pipe insulation and zip tie about 8" of it to your rods just above the reel, might help avoid those losses in the future. They will float.
